Fromage, the French word for cheese, represents a diverse range of dairy-based products enjoyed worldwide. Made from milk—cow, goat, sheep, or other animals—fromage goes through processes like fermentation and aging to develop its distinct flavors and textures. Originating in ancient culinary traditions, French cheeses like Brie, Camembert, and Roquefort are world-renowned, though fromage exists in countless varieties globally. Nutritionally, fromage is rich in protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, supporting muscle health and bone density. However, many cheeses are high in saturated fat, sodium, and calories, making moderation crucial for healthy eating. Lighter cheeses, such as feta or part-skim mozzarella, offer lower-fat options, while aged varieties provide probiotics for gut health. Fromage’s versatility enhances savory dishes and desserts, serving an important role in cuisines around the globe—from charcuterie boards to fondue traditions.
